I want to hold this book to my heart and never let go.
What an absolutely gorgeous and heartbreaking work of art. Her writing is transcendent- I felt the wind, the dust, smelled the spices, felt the pencil in Nisha's hand! And the story: so vital. So poignant. Millions of people were (and no doubt still are) affected by this, and I am ashamed to say I had never heard of it until a few months ago.
And Nisha, our sweet narrator . . . I love this precious girl! She made me sad, and happy, and hungry.
